Here’s a step-by-step guide:

Locate the key release: On the side of your key fob, you’ll find a small release button or tab.
Release the metal key: Press the release button and slide the metal key out of the fob.
Open the fob: Use the metal key or a small flathead screwdriver to carefully pry open the key fob casing along the seam where the two halves meet. Be gentle to avoid damaging the plastic.
Remove the old battery: Once the fob is open, you’ll see the CR2032 battery. Gently pry it out using your fingernail or the flathead screwdriver.
Insert the new battery: Place the new CR2032 battery into the compartment, making sure the positive (+) side is facing up, just like the old battery.
Close the fob: Snap the two halves of the key fob back together until you hear a click.
Reinsert the metal key: Slide the metal key back into its slot on the fob.
Test the key fob: Try locking and unlocking your car doors to ensure the new battery is working correctly.

When to Replace Your Key Fob Battery

Recognizing the signs of a dying key fob battery can prevent those inconvenient moments when your key fob suddenly stops working. Here are some common indicators:

Reduced range: You have to be much closer to your vehicle for the key fob to function.
Dim or flickering lights: The indicator light on your key fob is weaker than usual or doesn’t light up at all.
Intermittent operation: The key fob works sometimes but not others.
No response: The key fob doesn’t respond at all when you press the buttons.
